 *Beware: Spoilers within*
Video game endings are terrible.
Its a controversial statement but not far from being the truth. Now, Im not talking about the end cinematic of a game, Im talking about how the last mission, act or hour of a game completely sours the experience of games, classic or otherwise. We havent moved on from final boss battles that patronise the gamer with its attack patterns and general inability to challenge. Movies took the leap from simple moving pictures to sprawling epics; literature took absurd, one-dimensional revenge tragedy and transformed it into texts that are mentioned hundreds of years on. Gaming has taken a similar leap in to the unknown and this increased scope has yielded near-photorealistic visuals, snappy scriptwriting and genuine immersion in game worlds.

Just one problem: Licensing a popular and beloved table like that can be expensive, so the developer is looking to Kickstarter to fund this expansion to their already-great collection. Czytaj więcej »

"Star Wars Battlefront 3 is probably one of the more anticipated Star Wars games. Despite being a shallow knockoff of the Battlefield series, its Star Wars. The soldiers are iconic, the locations are epic, and everything about fighting in a galaxy far, far away is just made better because its Star Wars....Now aside from the obvious land to space battles which has been pretty much the focus of every Battlefront 3 rumor, what else would a guy like me like to see in this game?"

 "Its been seven years since I first played Diablo II, so Ive been looking forward to Diablo III for some time now (Not the full twelve year wait, mind. But still quite a while). I love these kinds of RPGs, and Ive spent many (hundreds) of hours playing Darkstone, Titan Quest, Diablo, Torchlight and various others, so when my beta invite for Diablo III came through I decided to promptly ignore it."
